Capo 5


C5      F5       A5         F5
I met Jane in September's throw
C5         F5             A5         F5
January's grass, we let each other go
G5      F5       A5      F5
I met Helen on March's back
G5            F5           C5         D5
She took my coat and she stole my hat
A5         G5        C5          F5
I met you when the weather got fine
A5                   G5        C5            F5
You said 'I've got yours if you've got mine'

        C5         F5       C5      F5
And the worst and best of all we knew
    A5        F5           G5  F5     C5
Stayed out to rust in the morning dew

C5            F5       A5         F5
Didn't take long to sing our love
C5             F5            A5       F5
Was a harvest feast, was a hand to glove
G5            F5                A5       F5
When winter came you couldn't stand to sit
G5            F5           C5        D5
You just the same never burnt but lit
A5               G5          C5          F5
With a world at war and my thoughts on you
  A5             G5                 C5       F5
I didn't care to fall, there wasn't much to do


         C5         F5      C5       F5
And the worst and best of all we knew
 A5           F5           G5   F5   C5
Stayed out to rust in the morning dew


C5         F5           A5         F5
Churlish May when the year was fair
C5          F5           A5         F5
Gone full circle when things went square
G5      F5          A5    F5
Ate my meal an un-noble beast
G5            F5       C5         D5
Left me to pay not a movable feast
A5         G5        C5          F5
Look I got nothing, dunno where I am
        A5         G5                C5         F5
Got a fistful of questions, not an answer to hand

         C5         F5      C5       F5
And the worst and best of all we knew
 A5           F5           G5   F5   A5
Stayed out to rust in the morning dew
A5 C5 C5
Morning dew
       G5       F5        A5                F5
With a blow me down the road, dead in the wood


C5             F5                A5         F5
Further from you now, then the roots from the leaves
C5             F5           A5       F5
Drunk on the wood, never seen any trees
G5                 F5            A5            F5
My ore's out the water and the lake that I'm sailing
        G5              F5                C5             D5
Is your dear father's daughter and it's cold and I'm ailing
A5                  G5               C5               F5
Are you drowning me slowly, was the school meant to teach
A5                 G5                    C5                 F5
Are you leaving so slowly, where's the shore, where's the beach?

         C5         F5      C5       F5
And the worst and best of all we knew
 A5           F5           G5   F5   C5
Stayed out to rust in the morning dew
